One destination mentioned in this post

I've done this drive a few times, the road is OK, and you can make it in 2.5 - 3 hrs. Just do it in the middle of the day, try not to align with dacha weekend traffic coming into the City, and you'll be fine. There's even a couple of decent truck stops on the way to get food and rest if you need to, if I remember right, the most modern one is past Luga just over half way toward Spb.
